Magnificence (history of ideas) In the Summa theologiae magnificence is a virtue that belongs to God, which can also be shared by men (Summa, IIa IIae q. 134 art. 1). Aquinas adopts Cicero’s definition of magnificence, highlighting how it consists in doing great things. Magnificence belongs to the virtue of fortitude, or courage, because it regards the undertaking of great things and actions, and persevering even when circumstances can make their realization arduous (Summa, IIa IIae q. 134 art. 1-4).

26. Spiritual Warfare (Ephesians 6:10-20) Righteousness Is a Defense against Satanic Attacks. When Paul speaks of the “breastplate of righteousness,” he means the breastplate which is righteousness. Righteousness itself is the Christian’s breastplate. It is not the breastplate of our own righteousness that Paul is speaking of here. If my righteousness were my defense against Satan’s attacks, I would be in a lot of trouble. It is Christ’s righteousness that is our defense against Satan.
